On February 3rd and 4th, 2018, The Rolex Arts Weekend in Berlin presented the work of the protégés and the mentors of the 2016 – 2017, Rolex Mentor and Protégé Arts Initiative.

Rolex aim is to pair young artists from all over the world with artistic masters, like the Peruvian artist Pauchi Sasaki and Philip Glass.

This program is focused in seven disciplines: architecture, dance, film, music, theater, literature and visual arts. The artists spend a minimum of six weeks together with the mentor, working one-to-one and showcase the results at the end of the program.

Rolex mentor Philip Glass introduced his protégée on the stage at the Deutsches Theater. They presented an extract of her electro-acoustic project GAMA, as well as the suite OMAGUA, a compilation inspired by Peruvian traditional music.

Pauchi wore a dress made of black speakers on stage while she played a processed violin in this World Premiere show.
